What is the aim or goal of your writing: I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up (at 40 years old!), so I went back to college and earned a degree in English with an emphasis on creative writing. While I was there, several of my short stories were published in literary magazines (University of Michigan's Passages North was one). In my first novel I decided to "write what I know", and I knew the Michigan Upper Peninsula and the Swedes and Finns I grew up with. My success comes from constantly learning more about my craft and by never giving up. It took six years for my first novel to see publication.

May inquiries be sent to you about doing workshops, readings: Yes
I enjoy giving presentations and am always open to ideas.
